Campgrounds near Orkney No. 244
Orkney No. 244 is a rural municipality in east-central Saskatchewan that surrounds the city of Yorkton. RV travellers use it as a base for the parkland lakes and boreal-transition forests to the north and east, plus the Qu'Appelle Valley to the south. Highways 9, 10, 16 and 52 all pass through or near the RM, so most nearby campgrounds are reachable within an hour or two.
The closest full-service option is Good Spirit Lake Provincial Park, roughly 30 minutes northwest of Yorkton, known for its large sand beach and dune trail system. Farther afield, Duck Mountain Provincial Park sits east near the Manitoba boundary, while Crooked Lake Provincial Park lies south in the Qu'Appelle Valley.
Smaller municipal and private options fill in the gaps. Preeceville Park offers a compact treed campground in the town of Preeceville, and South Katepwa RV Park provides pull-through RV sites in the Qu'Appelle Valley near Katepwa Lake. Together these campgrounds cover a range of trip styles, from beach-focused family stays to overnight highway stops.
Things to do near Orkney No. 244
Water recreation drives most trips in this region. Good Spirit Lake is a popular spot for fishing, with pike, perch, and walleye in the lake's waters. The park also has a swimming beach, boat launch, mini golf, tennis and beach volleyball courts, plus the Dune Discovery Interpretive Trail through natural sand dunes.
Duck Mountain Provincial Park adds rolling boreal terrain, Madge Lake as its central feature, two sand beaches at Pickerel Point and Ministik, and an 18-hole golf course. A segment of the Trans Canada Trail weaves through the park alongside other interpretive and nature trails.
In the Qu'Appelle Valley, Crooked Lake supports fishing for walleye, perch and northern pike, plus boating and hiking. Anglers should carry a Saskatchewan fishing licence, available online or at most park offices before heading out on the water.

The main camping season in this part of Saskatchewan runs from the May long weekend through September. Provincial parks such as Good Spirit Lake, Duck Mountain and Crooked Lake open sites for the standard summer season, with some seasonal campsites available into early fall. Summer brings warm days, long daylight hours, and the busiest weekends around Canada Day and the August long weekend, when lakeside sites fill early.

Water services, showers and dump stations are typically available only during the standard season, and reduced winter service applies at Duck Mountain from November through mid-March, when firewood and pit toilets remain but power, water, showers and the trailer dump are shut off.
Recent seasons have seen weather-related disruptions worth checking before departure. Flooding around Duck Mountain has closed some trails and marinas at times, with barricades installed in inaccessible areas. Wildfire smoke from northern Saskatchewan can also drift into the region during hot, dry stretches in July and August.
How to book a campsite
Saskatchewan's provincial parks, including Good Spirit Lake, Duck Mountain and Crooked Lake, use a single online reservation system at parks.saskatchewan.ca. Seasonal campsite bookings open in mid-April, followed by staggered nightly, Camp-Easy yurt, group campsite and day-use launches across the next several days. Reservations open at 7:00 a.m. CST each launch day.
Staggered park-by-park launches apply: Good Spirit Lake typically opens on the first nightly launch day, Duck Mountain on the second, and Crooked Lake on the third. Popular lakeside and electric sites are often gone within minutes of launch, so create an account and save favourites ahead of time.
A valid vehicle entry permit is required for all vehicles in a provincial park, and can be purchased in advance online or shown as a digital or printed copy on arrival. Municipal and private parks such as Preeceville Park and South Katepwa RV Park are booked directly with the operator by phone.
What to expect on-site
Provincial park campgrounds in this area offer a mix of electric and non-electric sites. Good Spirit Lake has campsites spread across three loops with both non-electric and 30-amp electric sites; Balsam Campground is fully electric while Sandy Ridge and Aspen mix electric and non-electric sites, and water taps and an RV dump station are on-site. At Duck Mountain, Birch Campground offers RV and trailer sites with electric hookups and a small number of full-hookup sites, plus a service centre with flush toilets, showers, and a sewage dump.
Expect treed, private sites at Crooked Lake, sandy shorelines at Good Spirit and Katepwa, and small-town convenience at Preeceville. Firewood is provided free of charge in Saskatchewan's provincial parks. Bears live in the Duck Mountain area, so store food securely and use bear-safe garbage bins.
